Sup /OT.
Abridged version:
I'm at a festival of some flavour, when I meet two boys, D and V.
They are both quite nice. But V is a LOT HOTTER than D. And I want V more.
V doesn't fancy me. At all.
Don't get any.
Move forward a year and a half. I've built up a friendship with both, not got off with either of them. Still like V like mad.
Go on a night out with both.
Decide it's now-or-never for getting off with V, and if not, I'll just go for D.
Get off with D
(from now on, assume I'm talking about D)
Don't speak for ages, as he's gone off to uni.
We talk near new year, we arrange to meet for drinks. Someone tells me that he's calling it a "date".
I get panicky when he doens't text to confirm. So I call him, getting answerphone.
Don't realise said calls are registering. Fuck THAT one up.
See him at a party. Talk a bit. Hit someone.
Go and suck him off on a trampoline.
Haven't really talked since.

Do I ask him for drinks, or is it a monumentally bad idea?

UPDATE: Texted. Simply "What are you doing tomorrow? x"
Am yet to see if this will result in a date to KFC.

and calm the fuck down.

Problem solved.

Ah, that's the problem
Asking for a drink is not the same as going for a drink.

I don't want to scare him too much and be too pushy. And he'll say no, and I'll get hurt by the rejection.

I should just leave it, but I don't know.
( Lampito asleep in the poppies, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:13, Reply)

Well, just try not to be too pushy
You know you are likely to do it so it's easier to stop yourself.
( Christmas Fairy is clumsily dancing away this fear, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:14, Reply)

The thing is
I don't think he likes me.
He's not really going to care if he never talks to me again.
He's shaved his hair off.

But he's LOVELY!
( Lampito asleep in the poppies, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:16, Reply)

Oh then don't be a twat
Leave with your self respect intact.
( Christmas Fairy is clumsily dancing away this fear, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:17, Reply)

So lets get this right
He doesn't want you
He doesn't like you
He doesn't look so pretty anymore

Why are you wasting your time on him?

If he's LOVELY!, keep him as a friend, nothing more.

Right, let me put it this way.
If someone gave you a nice pair of shoes, say on a trampoline, then asked to see you again a few months later would you want to see them again.

The only problem is if there's a new cobbler.
(Psyc-Ho-Ho-Ho-Chomp **bearer of the waki crown**, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:15, Reply)

No new cobblers I don't think
Though as I am with EVERY burnt out relationship, I'm the go-to for complaining that the person you like is unavailable/I don't know how to get her/I'm feeling so alone.

If you want an ounce of self respect after seeing him then don't.
If you're not too fussed, ask him out.
( jesus' sexbox explosion FAH Q, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:13, Reply)

Ask anyone who knows me if I have self-respect
Ironically D's been one of the guys who's telling me to have more respect for myself.

Still, in the words of my ex, the only affection he's ever shown me is in letting me suck him off.
( Lampito asleep in the poppies, Tue 16 Jun 2009, 22:14, Reply)

So then why would you want to see him now?
If that's all the affection he's shown you? I don't know anything about you, but I'm guessing even you know you can do better than that?

How long has it been since you sucked him off?
If it's not to long, and you like him, go for it.

If it's been ages, pack up your bags and move on... or wait until a nutural friend can put two-and-two together.

It's a shame that 'D' is your second choice, but I guess that's how life works out, I'ld find that quite insulting... but not insulting enough for me to turn the girl down, if I like her.

It was meant to be a secret.
I think he knew he was second choice, but I just really liked him.

It's been about a month and a half I think. Maybe.

As long as you propper fancies him, rather than "He'll do", then go for it.

If he hasn't been in touch in a month and a half, then he's clearly not interested, or you're shit at blowjobs
either way, he's not worth it.
